This is exactly the sort of thing that one expects with "European
Harmonisation". If you think it looks a mess try re-registering a German
glider trailer as a French one. Two countries with a common border, 40+
years to get systems harmonised, in reality a bureaucratic mess!

That sort of nonsense isn't the personal property of the EU, French or
German bureaucracies. Its common to all bureaucracies world wide.

In my experience anyway, it peaks in the Indian and British civil
services, where I'm uncertain which is the worst or who picked up the
most bad habits from the other. In all cases the actual job is not
relevant: what counts is who has the biggest/most important department
and, among anybody above Higher Executive Officer level, playing
dominance games with one's peers.

Historically (pre-EASA), in gliding world, UK has been land of free like no other for gliding. Or at least that is my impression. Maybe you are heading to that direction again?
